So, for the second time in my life I have purchased a cell phone. My first ever cell phone was a Star Tak which broke on my first trip anywhere. I’m hoping for a longer life with this phone. I wouldn’t have even purchased this phone except David asked me to make sure I had a backup plan for an Internet connection when I move in December.
The specs on this Phone/PDA/GPS are pretty impressive, but had I known about the upcoming release of the HTC P3350 Polaris I might have waited a few weeks.
The feature I’m most excited about is the built in GPS, I’ve been wanting to get one for awhile but don’t travel enough to justify a special purpose device like a GPS. I’m sure Shane and I will put it too some good use in Ft. Myers since we will both be new to the area.
The big features for me are:
- Windows Mobile 5/6
- Quad-Band cellular phone (world wide support for GSM)
- Recharge off of a USB connection
- Supports tethering
- Supports Bluetooth
- Supports GPS
- Supports Direct-Push Email
(Basically my email, calendar, contacts, and task list will stay in sync between my desktop, notebook, phone, and web app)
So, now I guess I’m ready to join the rest of the cell phone carrying world.
